Our Winter Gala will warm you up with a trip to Buenos Aires for Ginastera’s Variaciones concertantes, which expertly combines classical and Latin music in the Argentinian composer’s unique (and ultra-cool) style. Also playing it cool is Leonard Bernstein’s suite of symphonic dances from West Side Story. You’ll want to snap your fingers in time with the rhythm, just like the Jets in this mid-century take on Romeo and Juliet. It’s catchy, it’s jazzy, and our Chief Conductor Jaime Martín will be dancing along from the podium.

Our concert also features Melbourne-born soprano and TV star Danielle de Niese. She has sung for the Metropolitan Opera and Covent Garden, and recorded with Hans Zimmer for the music in Ridley Scott’s film Hannibal. A fantastic storyteller, Danielle will bring drama and joy to the stage with some of your favourite selections from classic musicals by Gershwin, Bernstein and more.
